Developing the Project Charter and Baseline Project Plan

Pay attention to the components that make up the project charter. MOV stands for Measurable Organizational Value and is a key component in developing the business case.

Resources

Because the project charter acts as an agreement or contract, it may be useful to specify the resources required and who is responsible for providing those resources. Resources may include people, technology, or facilities to support the project team. It would be somewhat awkward for a team of consultants to arrive at the client's organization and find that the only space available for them to work is a corner table in the company cafeteria! Therefore, explicitly outlining the resources needed and who is responsible for what can reduce the likelihood for confusion or misunderstanding.
